Technical characteristics

This thread inpolyesteris wound on a1,000 m reel(1,094 yds), a format that is suitable for seamstresses who make series of bags, cushions or garments. Polyester forms a strong and smooth thread. Theissue 215designates this colour in the Gütermann range: keep it to buy the same shade at the end of the coil. Warm and neutral, it blends in with linen, light corduroy, cotton canvas or sandblasted gabardine.

Directions for use

• On bag handles, double the stitching line to 3 mm apart and finish with a square stopping point to resist pulling.
• Spread a few metres of thread on a scrap rather than judging on the spool: the tight winding darkens the shade.
• For an assembly seam on corduroy, stitch in the direction of the pile and soften the tension of the thread.

Complete with an ecru cotton bias and a beige zipper for a harmony of warm neutrals.
